captain reggie williams with the san jose fire department who was called out here, a very strange call but can you tell me how challenging that rescue was? >> it was a very difficult challenge for us this morning. after 2:00 a.m. the police department summoned us for a ladder. we realized that and required rescue from them. we used 18 personnel along with that to get this gentlemen out. >> kind of a crazy story you were trying to figure out who -- how did he get there. >> yeah, we are not sure what he was doing. we do understand he was the one that called for help. once the police department realized they could not get him out they requested assistance from the fire department. >> okay. all right. as far as police go we are still waiting for a lieutenant to come here but we were told by a sergeant they believe this man who was stuck in between

the building was actually a suspect who the chp was chasing last night. they think he crashed his car, because they found two cars crashed there. they believe that he fled on foot and somehow he was hiding and he got trapped and fell in between these two buildings. the next thing they know at 2:00 in the morning they are receiving a phone call from a man who says he is trapped between the two buildings and he was chased by two men with a knife, so they are trying to see if that story holds up or if this is the same man that chp was chasing last night, so a lot of things that we are still trying to confirm and hopefully we can get some answers for you coming up in the next half-hour. reporting live from san jose, janine de la vega, a ktvu channel 2 news. >> 5:03. following news in the east bay. police right now are investigating a deadly shooting that happened hours ago at west

mcarthur boulevard. alex savidge is there. what do you know? >> reporter: in talking with police this morning they don't know a whole lot about this man found shot to death in the street. this homicide investigation still unfolding out here. you can see behind me it has macarthur boulevard shut down at market street. the shooting appears to have taken place about halfway down the block on the right side of the street. right in front of a car. that is where this man's body is still sitting right in the roadway at this point. everything happened just after 2:00 this morning when police got 911 calls from neighbors about gunfire in this area. officers showed up and obviously found the victim. we watched as they searched the area looking for any sort of evidence they could find. looking in backyards driveways and near homes. investigators don't have any sort of description on the shooter involved in this inspect. but what this is doing is potentially causing a traffic issue this morning because macarthur boulevard is entirely

shut down and it leads right into the freeway entrance for 580 and 80 that takes you directly into the maze if you are trying to go west into san francisco or get on to 80 and go east, so this could be a traffic issue because this will likely remain closed down macarthur boulevard for several hours this morning as this homicide investigation unfolds here in oakland. live in oakland, alex savidge, ktvu channel 2 news. >> an early morning fire in the mission district sent more than two dozen people out of their homes. it started after 1:00 this morning at an apartment building near the intersection of 22nd and fair oaks streets. firefighters were able to get it under control in just about 30 minutes and every 1 was able to make it out okay. >> the people are not able to go back inside. we have fire damage on all floors there and we have some fire damage and the fire into the first floor. >> the cause of the fire is still being investigated.

than there but again i am -- i broad brushing this forecast, still a possibility of that, it does look warmer inland just by that fact but keep an eye there especially those could do that. 50s, 60s and 70s and warmer there instead of that we will get that. the higher clouds will be out -- they will boot scoot but it looks like that with that it should not do that, so over to you. >> a problem there, why some passengers had to be evacuated. >> the highest number of west nile cases since the illness has been discovered. why this is the worst outbreak ever. >> traffic looking good there. we will have an update on the fire near the carquinez bridge coming up. i'm going to show you guys another chart. pretty obvious. i don't think color matters. pretty obvious. what's pretty obvious about it ? that verizon has the coverage. verizon. verizon.

appeared to be a bomb to her chest. then they drove her to the bank, made her remove the money from the vault and instructed her to toss the money outside to them. >> there were other employees inside and she explained to them what was happening and showed them the device strapped to her body. >> you can see there a robotic device blew up the device, which law authorities now say does not appear to be a bomb. the suspects got away with the money and avoided cameras. they are interviewing the manager to try to learn more about them. a florida man was arrested after showing up at a theater with pink hair and face make up resembling the joker. someone spotted him pacing back and forth in front of the movie theater yesterday. police say the 21-year-old man made no threats, had no weapons and was cooperating with investigators but of course it caused concern because of the

massacre at a movie theater last month. >> 5:46. new this morning the russian president says russia cap work with mitt romney if he is elected president, despite a statement by mitt romney that russia is the number 1 geo political foe of the united states. in an interview vladimir putin said he will work with whoever is elected but hissest is only as efficient as his partners want it to be. the secret service investigating the report that somebody stole copies of mitt romney's tax records. these are the records he has refused to release despite a lot of public pressure. a letter sent to his accounting firm in tennessee is demanding a million dollars to keep those records secret. the letter also reportedly said the records were stolen late last month during what was called a watergate style break in. >> two oakland men are suing in and out burger for

to make sure you are aware of it. right there you go. two lanes are closed on 101 northbound between the waldo tunnel and sir francis drake boulevard. at the bay bridge incline a pretty shot of the span, no delays as folks drive into san francisco this morning. 237 down in milpitas traffic on the right-hand-side there those taillights are westbound toward sunnyvale. 5:48. let's check in with steve. >> tara, thank you. well yesterday from mendocino county, lake county down there we had cloud cover and showers. less coverage today. there is still some showing up. they want to favor south of san jose. kind of that line right now. a little break in twin those clouds. plenty there. you can see right there that line forming. another active day out there also there. around gilroy in between san jose morgan hill and then towards there still some from the southwest, santa cruz down there so nothing compared to

yesterday but they are still there. so sprinkles, showers today and 50s on the temperatures, low, mid to upper. i don't think they will do that, just that. not as many as yesterday. looks like the low responsible for that is moving so far away that the source of that highway that it is using to bring those in will get turned off by tonight and tomorrow and see a decrease in that after today. today they are still there. now again mainly east and south but scattered showers, a possibility of thunder showers, warmer inland though. more sun compared to yesterday with that and temperatures in the 70s, even 50s and 60s there but a cool couple of days there, 62 yesterday, 63 today, oakland 67, 67 hayward, 83 livermore, 74 there, redwood city 72, those are your temperatures there and that is not going anywhere and that will be with us, temperatures warm there but cool by it. >> a few minutes ago they
